KJBL (96.5 FM) is a radio station licensed to Julesburg, Colorado, USA. The station is owned by Armada Media - Mccook. The station has obtained a construction permit from the FCC for a power increase to 55,000 watts. The construction permit would increase the height above average terrain from -32.4 meters to -21 meters. This will allow KJBL to become a class C1 station and significantly increase its coverage area.[1][2]

Along with carrying oldies, the station airs local high school football games. The station carries local news as well. Music on KJBL is primarily satellite fed.

History

The station was assigned the call letters KEGK on February 26, 1999. On July 24, 2001, the station changed its call sign to KKAS and on July 7, 2004, to KKYT.
